21st DadsDay Run – Register here!
The Family Connections DadsDay Run is celebrating its 21st anniversary! Since the beginning we have raised over $500,000 in net proceeds to support our mission of engaging families with young children. This race would not be here today without the tireless effort of Peter Nagsky and his family.
Runners, walkers (bring your dog!), and strollers with kids are all invited to register to participate in the race.
LOCATION: It will be held, rain or shine, at the Colonnade near the Shaker Main Library and the Stephanie Tubbs Jones Community Center. There will be free food and beverages, plus special appearance by Ninja Nutin who won American Ninja Warrior Jr Season 2, Flower Clown, and Devon the DJ will be on-hand to add to the fun.
Race Start Time:
- 8:00 AM – 5 Miler
- 8:05 AM – 1 Mile

Runner Perks:
